 Soapbox Comments
 ________________

 New call is COOL!!! Lots of commnents recieved on my new call!
 Here's a timeline sketch of what occurred here @ K9YO
 Friday evening: 
 The operating table is just getting its final coat of polyurethane
 and the first boxes are being unpacked in the new shack.

 Saturday A.M. (2-4AM):
 Most of the equipment is on the desk, and I think it looks too crappy.
 So, I go through everything and end up throwing a huge box of crap away.
 I realize that I have to get some rest before waking up at 6 to go to work.

 Saturday P.M. (4-8PM):
 I get home from bowling and work, and get back to cleaning the desk off 
 of unused junk. By 9 P.M., I have everything in place. My first CQ goes
 out shortly after 9. 

 Sunday A.M.:
 Wake up at 8 A.M., REALLY refreshed! At that point, I was at ~30 Q's.
 I begin on 40, and rack up to about 60 Q's. I move to 20, and rack up
 to about 80 Q's before a REALLY strange band closure occurs. It's like
 1 second, everyone's S9 and 20 over, and then, nothing. Strange!

 Sunday P.M.:
 A repeat of Sunday morning, without the band dropping out. Had to QRT
 around 3:30 to finish up some homework for school, and to help
 a friend with her college project. I finished at 8PM, and since I was
 at 130 Q's, decided to up my goal from 100 to 150. I was really pleased
 to get all of my goals, except for 1.

 My Goals:
 100 Q's, 50 Mults, 10K points

 It was fun, and I look forward to working everybody in future contests
 with K9YO!

 I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations established
 for amateur radio in my country.  My report is correct and true to the best
 of my knowledge.  I agree to be bound by the decisions of the Awards
Committee.
